Why Early Access?

“We'd love to release Runeflame as soon as possible, but we need it to undergo Early Access so that we can develop and tweak the game with a healthy dose of feedback from players.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“We expect Runeflame to spend approximately 4 months in Early Access.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“We plan to incorporate a variety of additions to core gameplay during Early Access that should increase player accessibility and enjoyment throughout the game. We have some things currently in mind regarding the in-game travel system, archery, and player customization, but these priorities may change as we hear from the players.

New additions may also be added to the pipeline depending on player feedback.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The core systems of Runeflame are complete and playable, such as our archery system, character creation and customization, quest system, and the base game world to explore and quest in.

We also have one element of our module system present in the form of "Legacy of the Druids" which players can purchase to unlock a second area with its own self-contained quests.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Runeflame will not be priced differently during or after Early Access. We firmly believe that free-to-play is a great way to give players the chance to try our game and see if they like it, and we won't be changing our minds anytime soon.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We're asking for your feedback in a variety of places, especially the Steam forums but also on any social network sites. Based on conversations among the players, we plan to actively implement content and system improvements that were not planned at the beginning of development.”
